Chapter 249 The Spirit Pagoda Plan from Ten Thousand Years Ago
Chapter 249 The Spirit Pagoda Plan from Ten Thousand Years Ago
After a long while, it took him a long time to recover from the immense shock.
She raised her eyes to look at Huo Yuhao, and those usually calm and serene eyes were now filled with turbulent waves.
Her voice trembled slightly uncontrollably: "This spirit... is it really as miraculous as you say?"
Even though Xu Jiujiu trusted Huo Yuhao completely, she still couldn't help but ask this question when faced with the mind-bending system of soul spirits.
Huo Yuhao smiled calmly: "Of course it's true. I'm standing right in front of you, a living example. Didn't you see that Rebirth Butterfly with your own eyes?"
He took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling slowly with the movement, in order to calm his heart, which was beating almost out of control.
The soul tool that Huo Yuhao had previously taken out, which could help disabled people regain their normalcy, was already considered an astonishing item by her at the time.
But compared to the word "soul" at this moment, that soul tool seemed so insignificant.
Xu Jiujiu wondered what it meant if Huo Yuhao's talk about the soul system was true.
This means that the number of Soul Masters will experience explosive growth, the path of Soul Master cultivation will be redefined, and the power structure that has remained unchanged for millennia will face a reshuffling.
Whichever sect or empire is the first to grasp the secrets of the soul will hold the key to a new era.
Huo Yuhao is now standing at the entrance of this door.
More importantly, Huo Yuhao and the Star Luo royal family were already in a cooperative relationship, and now he is taking the initiative to reveal the secret of his soul spirit.
After a long while, his heart pounded violently a few times, and the excitement that had just been suppressed surged up again, even more intensely than before.
A thought popped into her mind, making her almost hold her breath.
Is he... preparing to join forces with Xingluo regarding the matter of souls?
If so...
He clenched his fingers tightly under his sleeve for a long time, his fingertips turning slightly white.
Excitement and anticipation surged within her, as if she were seeing a light that had never been seen before in the future of the empire.
However, the caution honed by her years in the palace prevented her from immediately asking questions. Instead, she raised her eyes again and gazed intently at Huo Yuhao.
"Young Master Huo," Xu Jiujiu's voice suddenly softened slightly as he asked, "This Soul Spirit System... did you create it?"
She first had to confirm one thing: who was behind this system that was capable of changing the landscape of the mainland?
Huo Yuhao met her gaze and calmly replied, "The Soul Spirit System was created by my teacher."
Xu Jiujiu suddenly understood; she already "knew" that a powerful level nine soul master was standing behind Huo Yuhao.
Hearing Huo Yuhao admit it with her own ears, she was not surprised at all; on the contrary, she felt that everything was just as it should be.
Only such an existence could break the age-old ironclad rule and pave the way for the soul, a path never before trodden.
Huo Yuhao took in Xu Jiujiu's changing expression and knew that the time had come.
He straightened up slightly and looked at Xu Jiujiu, saying, "To be honest, my teacher and I are planning to create an organization called the 'Spirit Transmission Tower' as a foundation to gradually promote the art of soul cultivation throughout the entire continent."
"However, this matter is of great importance, and it is difficult for the two of us, master and disciple, to accomplish it alone."
He paused briefly, then said, word by word, "I wonder if the Star Luo royal family is willing to provide support?"
After a long while, my heart started pounding wildly again, much to my dismay.
To create a brand new organization to promote the art of the soul?
After a long while, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and her thick eyelashes cast a small shadow on her eyelids, concealing the calculations and thoughts that were rapidly swirling in her eyes.
A moment later, her red lips curved slightly upward, her smile carrying the unique poise and shrewdness of a princess.
"For such a momentous event, the Star Luo Royal Family is naturally willing to provide support."
"I just don't know... how exactly will this support be provided?"
She didn't agree outright or make empty promises; instead, she caught the ball steadily and then tossed it back deftly.
Support is fine, but you need to make it clear what I need to give and what I can get in return.
Huo Yuhao's lips curled up slightly. He had been waiting for these words; he was prepared for them.
"Currently, on the entire continent, only my teacher and I have mastered the complete Soul Spirit Technique."
"To truly promote the Soul System, it is not something that can be accomplished overnight; it requires long-term planning."
Changing his tone, his gaze returned to Xu Jiujiu: "Therefore, the most important step right now is for the Star Luo Royal Family to prepare a piece of land for me, and then build the first Spirit Transmission Tower on the continent on this land."
Huo Yuhao casually waved his hand, and several blueprints appeared out of thin air on the table beside him: "These are the blueprints for the construction of the Spirit Pagoda."
After a long while, he reached out and picked up the drawing from the table. He unfolded it with both hands and looked at the intricate and precise design.
She was not an expert in architecture, and there were many of the densely packed technical terms and calculation symbols for load-bearing structures that she could not fully understand.
Even so, the rigor of the overall plan and the thoroughness of the details presented in this drawing still made her secretly shudder.
With her keen eye, she could tell that once built according to these blueprints, it would be a magnificent eight-story tower-shaped building.
She knew that this blueprint was not something that could be produced on a whim; Huo Yuhao had already made all the necessary preparations before even speaking to her.
This blueprint was not drawn by Professor Electrolux, but was specially designed for Huo Yuhao by the most outstanding architect of the Spirit Pagoda ten thousand years later.
Ensure that every building material and technology marked on the blueprints is something that the world of ten thousand years ago actually possessed and was capable of implementing.
Seeing Xu Jiujiu's increasingly serious expression, Huo Yuhao continued, "Once this Spirit Pagoda is successfully built, it will be the first Spirit Pagoda on the entire continent, and also the headquarters of the Spirit Pagoda."
"I can promise Your Highness that the Star Luo royal family and the Star Luo Empire's soul masters will have priority in obtaining the opportunity to fuse with soul spirits."
Xu Jiujiu's fingers, which had been gripping the blueprints, tightened slightly.
She understood without much thought what the phrase "prioritizing integration" meant for an empire.
The Soul Masters of Xingluo will be ahead of all other Soul Masters on the continent. This first-mover advantage, once accumulated, will be enough to change the power landscape of the entire continent within decades.
However, Huo Yuhao had not finished speaking.
"After the Spirit Pagoda is successfully established, it will be managed using a council system."
"The Star Luo Royal Family will have two seats in the parliament."
Xu Jiujiu's pupils contracted almost imperceptibly. His promise of two seats meant that the Star Luo royal family could have a voice in the decision-making level of the Spirit Pagoda. This voice was far more valuable than gold and silver.
"Furthermore, in the early stages of the Spirit Pagoda's establishment, the personnel needed will be recruited primarily from the Star Luo Empire."
Huo Yuhao never intended for the Star Luo Royal Family to work for free. He knew better than anyone that there was no such thing as a one-sided cooperation. If they were to provide land, people, and resources, then he would give them a commensurate return.
As for whether the Star Luo royal family might have other ideas in the future and try to seize power and sideline him in the Spirit Pagoda... Huo Yuhao's expression remained completely calm.
Regardless of his inherent strength, he will only become stronger in the future.
As long as the source of the Soul Technique is in your own hands, everything else is just trivial.
Xu Jiujiu listened very attentively. Although she remained expressionless on the surface as Huo Yuhao stated each condition, she was already calculating rapidly in her mind.
Asking the Star Luo royal family to contribute manpower, resources, and land certainly sounds like a significant investment.
However, for the royal family, which possesses the power of an entire nation, this sacrifice is utterly insignificant compared to the rewards promised by Huo Yuhao.
Prioritize the integration of soul spirits, two council seats, and the recruitment of Star Luo talents.
These three factors combined have firmly placed the Star Luo Empire in the first tier of the new era.
Once the Soul Spirit System truly spreads across the continent as Huo Yuhao predicted, every bit of power that Xingluo invests today could potentially benefit the Empire hundreds or even thousands of times over in the future.
If managed properly, riding this wave of opportunity, it's not impossible for Xingluo to become the number one empire on the continent in the future.
The moment this thought surfaced in my mind, I felt my fingertips getting slightly warm.
However, Xu Jiujiu was, after all, just a princess, and no matter how excited she was, she did not give a direct answer.
After a long while, he slowly rose and said solemnly, "This matter is of great importance, and I still need to consult my elder brother, the Emperor."
Huo Yuhao was not surprised. He nodded with a gentle smile and said, "I understand. I will stay in Xingluo City for a few more days and wait for Princess Jiujiu to bring back good news."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jiujiu smiled slightly and said, "I shouldn't... disappoint Young Master Huo."
After saying this, Xu Jiujiu did not linger any longer and turned to walk towards the door.
As she reached the door, she suddenly stopped, turned back to look at Huo Yuhao, and smiled brightly and sincerely: "Young Master Huo, please stay at the Starlight Auction House for the next few days. There's no need to find another place to stay. If you need anything, just tell the people here to do it."
Huo Yuhao smiled and nodded, then thanked him.
After a long while, his figure disappeared at the end of the corridor outside the door, and the reception room fell silent for a moment.
Huo Yuhao withdrew his gaze and instead glanced at the dazed Gongyang Mo beside him.
Huo Yuhao snapped his fingers in front of him and shouted, "Snap out of it!"
Gongyang Mo's body jolted, his eyes still filled with shock as he looked at Huo Yuhao.
"You..." Gongyang Mo's Adam's apple bobbed, his voice a little dry, "The power you mentioned wanting to create before, is that the Spirit Pagoda?"
Huo Yuhao crossed his arms, a mischievous smile playing on his lips: "That's right, do you regret getting on my pirate ship now?"
Gongyang Mo remained silent, but after only a moment, the silence was completely broken by a sudden burst of laughter.
"Hahaha!"
Gongyang Mo threw his head back and laughed, laughing so hard he almost fell over, and tears even trickled from the corners of his eyes. .
"What?! We've boarded a pirate ship!"
He stopped laughing, but he couldn't suppress the almost glowing excitement on his face, and his speech quickened a bit because of his excitement.
"I thought you made this decision on a whim or in a moment of impulse."
"Yes, that's what I thought before. I thought you were young and wanted to make something of yourself."
He took a deep breath, his eyes growing brighter: "But now? You have soul-manipulation technology! Once this Spirit Pagoda is built, what need is there to worry about the future?"
"In the future, the Spirit Pagoda will undoubtedly hold a place among the top powers on the continent!"
Gongyang Mo became more and more excited as he spoke, and even paced back and forth a couple of times, as if he had nowhere to vent his energy.
When he agreed to join Huo Yuhao's forces, whether it was out of "repaying a debt of gratitude" or "being loyal," he didn't really have high expectations for the future.
How far can a force formed on a whim by a teenager go?
He even made the worst-case scenario plan in his mind: at worst, it would just be a youthful passion that started but never ended.
But what did he see now?
It is a completely new system that is enough to overturn the ten-thousand-year cultivation path of Soul Masters!
Isn't this exactly what he got—the most valuable "original shares"?
Gongyang Mo almost wanted to burst out laughing three more times.
She thought her life would stay the same, but unexpectedly, everything changed after she met Huo Yuhao.
His mood has been like a rollercoaster these past few days, and it has just reached its peak!
Huo Yuhao simply smiled at his excited expression.
